| It's not about a salary, it's all about reality | |
| I'm all in the academy, exposin all the fallacies | |
| Not who other rappers be, FEW can go on after me | |
| I know the city's trappin me, watch 'em like my calories | |
| Cats that wanna battle me, they learn of the catastrophe | |
| Don't bring your rappin back to me | |
| NEVER will you ever challenge me with what you chat to me | |
| SEALED is my anatomy, I do it lyrical mastery, KRS - OH! | |
| The time has arrived as your wake up call | |
| When I'm rhymin, I'm obliged to shake up all | |
| It be a claat, this will drop the mic and take a ball | |
| Too many part-time rappers that fake and stall | |
| When you see KRS, you will say I'm tall | |
| Cause no I don't take shorts, not at all | |
| Philosopher, not some trick in the mall | |
| {Before rock met rap, I was sicker than all} | |
| I MASTERED THIS! FEW rappers goin after Kris | |
| Thirteen albums, you do the math on this! | |
| Obviously, knowledge you have to get | |
| What the ignorant don't know, hell they'll laugh at it | |
| All my college students you know you have to get | |
| your receipt, I mean degree, it's only facts I spit | |
| Take it, cause everyone ain't gonna make it | |
| If you're hearin my voice, you have a choice now TAKE IT! | |
| [Chorus: Will.I.Am (KRS)] | |
| Just take it, you need it | |
| We got way more in store, believe me | |
| Consume it, {inhale} breathe it | |
| (TAKE T-TAKE TAKE T-TAKE T-TAKE TAKE IT!) | |
| Just take it, you need it | |
| We got way more in store, believe me | |
| Consume it, {inhale} breathe it | |
| (TAKE T-TAKE TAKE T-TAKE T-TAKE TAKE IT!) | |
| [KRS-One] | |
| I rhyme, for the inner-city | |
| No I don't ask for no praise or no pity | |
| I got the power, you want to stay with me | |
| Further down this lyrical road, it gets tricky | |
| Stay with me! A different type of rapper emceein | |
| Seeing is believing but believing is seeing | |
| And seeing is agreein with the truth of your higher being | |
| So when I'm rhymin, I take time with the minds I'm freein | |
| The teacher is teachin, the student is seekin | |
| Them hookers be creepin instead of a book on the weekend | |
| I'm lookin to nukin 'em all in the dust | |
| They reject knowledge and without the anointing, you rust | |
| Laugh if you must, but trust that I see you naked | |
| You need what I'm givin, but you front and you fakin | |
| So like I stated, everybody ain't gonna make it | |
| But if you're hearin my voice, you have a choice now TAKE IT! | |
| [Chorus] | |
| [KRS-One] | |
| I'll keep on bringin it, singin it 'til your ears is ringin | |
| and steamin, gleamin the dream and true emceein with meaning | |
| and see men, we all fiendin for the cream and the screamin | |
| A demon got us believing screamin rhymin for NO reason! | |
| Every weekend we weaken, discipline is what we needin | |
| but we too busy freakin to understand divine speaking | |
| KRS and BBE, with Will 1X and Phife Dawg, you'll see me | |
| OH!! OH!! It's the real hip-hop | |
| KRS-One, shout out to Scott La Rock | |
| We do it from here to there, every city, every block | |
| And now it's about time we STOP! |
